No Queen album was bad. Some were simply better than others. Some are classics. One was groundbreaking.

Queen II
A Night At The Opera
A Day At Races
Queen
Innuendo

Worst:
I don't think Queen have bad albums, but some are better than others, Hot Space and Flash Gordon could be epic albums if they have strings and guitars in the place of synths.

In the live albums, Rock Montreal is the best,in music and quality, i expect the same for Budapest.

I wouldn't say I hate these albums, I like them, but they're not their best in my opinion.

Why do some people hate The Game...

While all Queen albums have some redeeming qualities, some are clearly better than others if judged by the quality of musicianship, strength of songwriting etc. As such, I would pick the following as the best:

ANATO
SHA
Queen II
ADATR
News of the World

and these are the weakest:

AKOM
Hot Space
The Works

I'm not going to write a prose manifesto professing my favorite Queen albums, because it seems to display incorrectly. I'll do it like this.

Favorites (in no order): Queen II/ADATR/ANATO/Queen/Innuendo
(News of the World missed the cut because WWRY and WATC are SO OVERRATED!)

Least Favorites (do I have to?):
Flash/AKOM/Hot Space (although its criminally underrated)/The Works (although I love a few from here, including Is This The World We Created?)
(Its only four, but Queen KICKS ASS!)

The number of people who put The Game in their worst lists always surprises me. For me that album is definitely just outside the top five somewhere.
